legislative bill is a written proposal for a law. Ideas for bills come from many sources: a legislator, two or more legislators, a legislator's constituents, businesses, government agencies, professional associations, interest groups, and other state legislatures.

Explanation:
I would go at an answer to the question from a different perspective than Thomas Beckinbridge.
I think a good criticism of the Bill of Rights is that it has been used to support the powerful against the powerless.
There are some good examples of this. One is that the Bill of Rights protects private property against socialism, and on many policy issues — like health care — I do not think that private property rights should trump legislative decisions. (Am I correct in thinking that the Dred Scott decision hinged on the right to private property? I simply do not remember.).
Another is that when you look at the Supreme Court’s interpretation of the rights to free speech and the rights to assembly, you see that the right to free speech has been expanded and expanded (think Citizens United) to bring more and more money (and generally more and more elite influence) into American politics, whereas the right to assembly has been constricted and constrained — anyone who marched in NYC against the war in Iraq knows how constricted their rights to free assembly were; anyone who engaged in the “we are the 99%” against Wall Street knows how their ‘rights’ to assembly were limited and overthrown.
To me, the central right in a democracy — or, as the Federalist calls us, a popular government — is the right to vote, with which is tied up the right not to be censored in speech and not to be limited in assembly in public places; I am not sure if the Bill of Rights has protected us any better than such a right to vote would protect us.
